PITTSBURGH -- A 20-year-old woman who was robbed at an ATM in Bloomfield was also maimed by her attacker, police said.
Pittsburgh police spokeswoman Diane Richard tells Channel 4 Action News that the victim was robbed at knifepoint on Wednesday night outside of a Citizens Bank near Liberty Avenue and Pearl Street just before 9 p.m.
Richard said the robber took $60 from the woman, then became angry when he saw a McCain bumper sticker on the victim's car. The attacker then punched and kicked the victim, before using the knife to scratch the letter "B" into her face, Richard said.
Richard said the woman refused medical treatment after the assault, which happened outside the view of the bank's surveillance cameras.
The robber is described as a dark-skinned black man, 6 feet 4 inches tall, 200 pounds with a medium build, short black hair and brown eyes. The man was wearing dark colored jeans, a black undershirt and black shoes.
I’m not the poster of those figures but the DOJ publishes crime stats each year. Last time I checked blacks commit 85 percent of ALL violent crime in America. And rapes involving a white victim and non-White attackers is about 90 PERCENT
No video and no medical treatment = potential for fakery or self inflicted wounds.
You gonna be still while a perp lightly scratches a B on your face. Would Ann Coulter?

This has the name of the victim in the article.
No way BHO weighs 200lbs. That Marxist tentpole probably weighs a buck and a half soaking wet.
Re: Sometimes a crime is just a crime. By quirk she happened to be volenteering. The perpetrator is certainly criminal, but political connection or motivation is dubious at best at this point.
Can you read where the report said the obamamaniac cut her up because of he McCain stickers? Has reading DU messed your mind up that much? I bet you doubt the “kill em” Obama plant at the McCain rallies was an Obama shill trying to make McCain look bad.
We have concealed carry in PA, so with that I don’t see why we shouldn’t OPEN carry, too.
The Pravda Press in NOT going to be talkiing about this. Even Fox News is not touching it. Maybe Nancy Grace will since she is sypmathetic to very young women, which this woman is.
Yeah,,,that’s the ticket.
Well, I bet the perp ‘loves his momma’.....unlike ‘The One’.
Funny, it was on Columbus Day. I know...I was there.
Nope, a part of the City of Pittsburgh
Why wouldn’t it be “O”?
he didn’t get up to that letter in school
But I do hold a grudge. ;)
Much better article.
FOX News just mentioned this story. They are waiting for more details.
So far, political affiliation isn't a protected category. Race, religion, sexual orientation.
I am quite serious that hate crime, if the DEMs insist on inflating charges based on motive, MUST be broadened to include political affiliation.
Even if this attack was faked.
Crying fake already?
FOX News just mentioned the story. They are waiting for more information.
Fox is already running it....
